A cookie is a small file that websites put on your computer, mobile device or tablet. Their job is to recognise you and notify the website when you’ve returned, and they are most commonly used for recording information about websites you have visited and possibly what you viewed, bought or linked to while there.

Cookies improve user experience by remembering your preferences and user names without the need to log in. If you do not allow cookies some features on this website will not function. Please see the information below for details about the cookies this website uses.

Session cookies allow users to be recognised within a website so any page changes or item/data selection you make is remembered from page to page.

These cookies collect information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to the site, where visitors come from and the pages they visited, so that we can measure and improve the performance of our site, using a service provided by Google Analytics.

These cookies used to keep track of some selections the visitor has made and whether the user is logged in or not.

Data cookies are set with a "session" expiry, which remains while the user has his/her browser program running, but is deleted if the browser program is shut down. If a visitor keeps his/her computer on and leaves the same browser program open for weeks, then this cookie will remain that long as well. If the visitor closes his/her browser program a minute after he/she stops using the site, the cookie is deleted then.
